Indigenous Communities exemplify diverse and vibrant cultures, and also face unique historical and contemporary realities of colonialism, dispossession, and oppression. In this episode, we hear from a luminary social worker and professor about both the trauma faced by Indigenous individuals and communities, as well as the resilience and strength present in those communities. Host David B. Feldman speaks with Dr. Hilary Weaver, Professor Emeritus in the School of Social Work at the University at Buffalo, member of the Lakota Community, and author of several books, including Trauma and Resilience in the Lives of Contemporary Native Americans: Reclaiming our Balance and Restoring our Well-Being as well as The Routledge International Handbook of Indigenous Resilience.
